About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Berlin Tegel Airport (TXL), Tegel / Berlin, Germany and Sedona Airport (SDX), Sedona, Arizona, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 5,554 miles (or 8,939 kilometers).
A Great Circle is the shortest distance between 2 points on a sphere. Because most world maps are flat (but the Earth is round), the route of the shortest distance between 2 points on the Earth will often appear curved when viewed on a flat map, especially for long distances. If you were to simply draw a straight line on a flat map and measure a very long distance, it would likely be much further than if you were to lay a string between those two points on a globe. Because of the large distance between Berlin Tegel Airport and Sedona Airport, the route shown on this map most likely appears curved because of this reason.
Try it at home! Get a globe and tightly lay a string between Berlin Tegel Airport and Sedona Airport. You'll see that it will travel the same route of the red line on this map!

Facts about Berlin Tegel Airport (TXL):
- The largest-ever expansion of Pan Am's scheduled internal German services occurred during summer 1984, when the airline's aircraft movements at Tegel increased by 20%.
- The furthest airport from Berlin Tegel Airport (TXL) is Chatham Islands (CHT), which is located 11,685 miles (18,805 kilometers) away in Waitangi, Chatham Islands, New Zealand.
- Berlin Tegel Airport (TXL) has 2 runways.
- Because of Berlin Tegel Airport's relatively low elevation of 122 feet, planes can take off or land at Berlin Tegel Airport at a lower air speed than at airports located at a higher elevation. This is because the air density is higher closer to sea level than it would otherwise be at higher elevations.
- On 1 April 1973, Air France re-introduced a daily non-stop Orly–Tegel rotation to complement the daily service via Cologne.
- The move from Tempelhof to Tegel resulted in all of Pan Am's Berlin operations being concentrated at the latter.
- Following the end of the Berlin Airlift in May 1949, Tegel became the Berlin base of the Armée de l'Air, eventually leading to the establishment of base 165 at Berlin Tegel on 1 August 1964.
- In addition to being known as "Berlin Tegel Airport", another name for TXL is "Flughafen Berlin-Tegel".
- Following the mid- to late 1960s' introduction by Pan American World Airways and British European Airways of jet aircraft with short-field capabilities that were not payload-restricted on Tempelhof's short runways, Air France experienced a traffic decline on those routes where it competed with Pan Am and BEA, mainly as a result of Tegel's greater distance and poorer accessibility from West Berlin's city centre.
- Berlin Tegel Airport handled 19,591,849 passengers last year.
- Berlin Tegel Airport is the main international airport of Berlin, the federal capital of Germany, ahead of Berlin Schönefeld Airport.

- Sedona Airport is a small non-towered airport located two miles southwest of the central business district of Sedona, a city in Yavapai County, Arizona, United States.
- Because of Sedona Airport's high elevation of 4,830 feet, planes must typically fly at a faster airspeed in order to takeoff or land at SDX. Combined with a high temperature, this could make SDX a "Hot & High" airport, where the air density is lower than it would otherwise be at sea level.
